The main intention of PROXY protocol is to pass endpoints information
to a back-end server (in our case - BIND). That means that it is a
valid way to spoof endpoints information, as the addresses and ports
extracted from PROXYv2 headers, from the point of view of BIND, are
used instead of the real connection addresses.
Of course, an ability to easily spoof endpoints information can be
considered a security issue when used uncontrollably. To resolve that,
we introduce 'allow-proxy' and 'allow-proxy-on' ACL options. These are
the only ACL options in BIND that work with real PROXY connections
addresses, allowing a DNS server operator to specify from what clients
and on which interfaces he or she is willing to accept PROXY
headers. By default, for security reasons we do not allow to accept
them.
This commit extends "listen-on" statement with "proxy" options that
allows one to enable PROXYv2 support on a dedicated listener. It can
have the following values:
- "plain" to send PROXYv2 headers without encryption, even in the case
of encrypted transports.
- "encrypted" to send PROXYv2 headers encrypted right after the TLS
handshake.
The AES algorithm for DNS cookies was being kept for legacy reasons, and
it can be safely removed in the next major release. Remove both the AES
usage for DNS cookies and the AES implementation itself.
The AES algorithm for DNS cookies was being kept for legacy reasons,
and it can be safely removed in the next major release. Mark is as
deprecated, so the `named-checkconf` prints a warning when in use.
The lock-file configuration (both from configuration file and -X
argument to named) has better alternatives nowadays. Modern process
supervisor should be used to ensure that a single named process is
running on a given configuration.
Alternatively, it's possible to wrap the named with flock(1).
This is first step in removing the lock-file configuration option, it
marks both the `lock-file` configuration directive and -X option to
named as deprecated.
The Unix Domain Sockets support in BIND 9 has been completely disabled
since BIND 9.18 and it has been a fatal error since then. Cleanup the
code and the documentation that suggest that Unix Domain Sockets are
supported.
Add a configuration option, resolver-use-dns64, which when true
will cause named to map IPv4 address to IPv6 addresses using the
view's DNS64 mapping rules when making iterative queries.
The dnssec-must-be-secure feature was added in the early days of BIND 9
and DNSSEC and it makes sense only as a debugging feature.
Remove the feature to simplify the code.
these options concentrate zone maintenance actions into
bursts for the benefit of servers with intermittent connections.
that's no longer something we really need to optimize.
When using automated DNSSEC management, it is required that the zone
is dynamic, or that inline-signing is enabled (or both). Update the
checkconf code to also allow inline-signing to be enabled within
dnssec-policy.
Add an option to enable/disable inline-signing inside the
dnssec-policy clause. The existing inline-signing option that is
set in the zone clause takes priority, but if it is omitted, then the
value that is set in dnssec-policy is taken.
The built-in policies use inline-signing.
This means that if you want to use the default policy without
inline-signing you either have to set it explicitly in the zone
clause:
zone "example" {
...
dnssec-policy default;
inline-signing no;
};
Or create a new policy, only overriding the inline-signing option:
dnssec-policy "default-dynamic" {
inline-signing no;
};
zone "example" {
...
dnssec-policy default-dynamic;
};
This also means that if you are going insecure with a dynamic zone,
the built-in "insecure" policy needs to be accompanied with
"inline-signing no;".
These two configuration options worked in conjunction with 'auto-dnssec'
to determine KSK usage, and thus are now obsoleted.
However, in the code we keep KSK processing so that when a zone is
reconfigured from using 'dnssec-policy' immediately to 'none' (without
going through 'insecure'), the zone is not immediately made bogus.
Add one more test case for going straight to none, now with a dynamic
zone (no inline-signing).
Add a new configuration option to set how the checkds method should
work. Acceptable values are 'yes', 'no', and 'explicit'.
When set to 'yes', the checkds method is to lookup the parental agents
by querying the NS records of the parent zone.
When set to 'no', no checkds method is enabled. Users should run
the 'rndc checkds' command to signal that DS records are published and
withdrawn.
When set to 'explicit', the parental agents are explicitly configured
with the 'parental-agents' configuration option.
There are times where you want named-checkconf to check whether the
dnssec-policies should be constrained by the cryptographic algorithms
supported by the operation system or to just accept all possible
algorithms. This provides a mechanism to make that selection.
- RSASHA1 (5) and NSEC3RSASHA1 (7) are not accepted in FIPS mode
- minimum RSA key size is set to 2048 bit
adjust kasp and checkconf system tests to ensure non FIPS
compliant configurations are not used in FIPS mode
for testing purposes, we need to be able to specify a library path from
which to load the dnsrps implementation. this can now be done with the
"dnsrps-library" option.
DNSRPS can now be enabled in configure regardless of whether librpz.so
is currently installed on the system.
These options and zone type were created to address the
SiteFinder controversy, in which certain TLD's redirected queries
rather than returning NXDOMAIN. since TLD's are now DNSSEC-signed,
this is no longer likely to be a problem.
The deprecation message for 'type delegation-only' is issued from
the configuration checker rather than the parser. therefore,
isccfg_check_namedconf() has been modified to take a 'nodeprecate'
parameter to suppress the warning when named-checkconf is used with
the command-line option to ignore warnings on deprecated options (-i).
Completely remove the TKEY Mode 2 (Diffie-Hellman Exchanged Keying) from
BIND 9 (from named, named.conf and all the tools). The TKEY usage is
fringe at best and in all known cases, GSSAPI is being used as it should.
The draft-eastlake-dnsop-rfc2930bis-tkey specifies that:
4.2 Diffie-Hellman Exchanged Keying (Deprecated)
The use of this mode (#2) is NOT RECOMMENDED for the following two
reasons but the specification is still included in Appendix A in case
an implementation is needed for compatibility with old TKEY
implementations. See Section 4.6 on ECDH Exchanged Keying.
The mixing function used does not meet current cryptographic
standards because it uses MD5 [RFC6151].
RSA keys must be excessively long to achieve levels of security
required by current standards.
We might optionally implement Elliptic Curve Diffie-Hellman (ECDH) key
exchange mode 6 if the draft ever reaches the RFC status. Meanwhile the
insecure DH mode needs to be removed.
the parser could crash when "include" specified an empty string in place
of the filename. this has been fixed by returning ISC_R_FILENOTFOUND
when the string length is 0.
- removed documentation of -S option from named man page
- removed documentation of reserved-sockets from ARM
- simplified documentation of dnssec-secure-to-insecure - it
now just says it's obsolete rather than describing what it
doesn't do anymore
- marked three formerly obsolete options as ancient:
parent-registration-delay, reserved-sockets, and
suppress-initial-notify
the built-in trust anchors in named and delv are sufficent for
validation. named still needs to be able to load trust anchors from
a bind.keys file for testing purposes, but it doesn't need to be
the default behavior.
we now only load trust anchors from a file if explicitly specified
via the "bindkeys-file" option in named or the "-a" command line
argument to delv. documentation has been cleaned up to remove references
to /etc/bind.keys.
Closes#3850.
A 'tls' statement can be specified both for individual addresses
and for the whole list (as a default value when an individual
address doesn't have its own 'tls' set), just as it was done
before for the 'port' value.
Create a new function 'print_rawqstring()' to print a string residing
in a 'isc_textregion_t' type parameter.
Create a new function 'copy_string()' to copy a string from a
'cfg_obj_t' object into a 'isc_textregion_t'.
Deprecate the use of "port" when configuring query-source(-v6),
transfer-source(-v6), notify-source(-v6), parental-source(-v6),
etc. Also deprecate use-{v4,v6}-udp-ports and avoid-{v4,v6}udp-ports.
